On Thursday, Nov. 27, the one-year anniversary of Sean Taylor’s tragic death, fans are welcome to come to FedExField and pay their respects to Taylor at a special memorial outside the stadium’s Ticket Office.
Fans may drop off flowers, cards and signs at the memorial, located between Gate A and Gate H. (Note: there is no memorial available to fans at Redskins Park.)
Last year, the Redskins set up a memorial for Taylor at FedExField in the days following Tayor’s death. Fans dropped off dozens of flowers, cards, signs and mementos prior to the Redskins-Bills game on Dec. 2, 2007.
Taylor was murdered at the age of 24 on Nov. 27, 2007, in Miami as he confronted intruders in his house.
With his incredible combination of size, speed, athleticism, ferocity and instincts, Taylor was one of the most unique and dynamic athletes the game has ever seen, despite playing less than four seasons.
